Hi!
My family used to keep chickens but they were always kept in rough conditions and I never really learned a lot about chicken diseases. Well I'm trying to change that!

I noticed something yesterday: two of my older hens (easter eggers) have started to have white wattles. They had pinkish wattles due to age (about 2 years old)
But what could this be?

:welcome It looks more like a whitening of the ear lobe rather than the wattles. It is common in some birds, and she looks to be in good health.

Thank you very much for the information and the welcome!
I was worried if it might be some kind of disease or physical damage from pecking.
Sorry about language issues. English isn't my native language and I'm just getting used to the site 😅
